Performance Challenges with ordhook #346

Closed suatap-alt closed 1 month ago

suatap-alt commented 1 month ago

Hey, I'm wondering if you've run into any speed bumps when indexing tons of Ordinal inscriptions? Any tips on how to keep things running smoothly when there's a lot going on?

hi @suatap-alt , indexing ordinals is a very intense process. I would need to look at your specific setup to give you feedback but right out the gate I would recommend you work on a machine with a fast hard disk and extensive memory. Also, make sure that your bitcoin node is running on a high performance machine that is as close to ordhook as possible in networking terms (or try to run bitcoind in the same machine) because there are a ton of RPC calls that need to be made into it.
